Consider the circuit shown below. If the voltage source is set to 10 V, R1 = 800 and R3 = 800.
Choose R2 so that the current through that resistor is equal to 10 mA.
Compute the total power dissipated by the circuit.
A group of students is conducting an investigation of a circuit with one battery and one resistor in order to find the resistance of the resistor. They have collected voltage data, and are planning to measure current next. How should they measure current and what relationship would they expect to find ?
In the Ohm’s Law experiment a power supply is connected to a resistor, as shown in the circuit diagram below. Assuming the resistance of the resistor is always 2 Ω, and that the voltage of the power supply is varied from -5 V to +5 V, plot a graph of thecurrent through the resistor as a function of the power-supply voltage.
